If He Had Been With Me Series Novels & Stories

I said, ready to leave, but he grabbed my wrist. “How will you go home?” “Huh?” I blinked, lost at a random question. “I have a car.” “Good,” he muttered in relief and rose to his feet. “I’m coming with you.” His words echoed many times in my mind. Callahan was coming with me. It was going to happen again. Us. In the bedroom. I swallowed hard, hating myself for feeling excited. I shook my head, more like brushing off the wild thoughts in my head.

How do I begin to tell him what has happened because of me? “Why would you do something like that? Why couldn't you just tell him the truth? You should have seen the look on his face, he looked like life was about to be sucked out of his body. He had to run out of here immediately and I couldn't even get to follow him even though I wanted to.” Maybe if Wesley had come with him, he wouldn't be alone. “Wesley, something happened.” From the look on my face, he knew that there was something wrong and he grabbed my hand and held on to it tightly.

It was a long story. “Are you sure you haven’t felt it yet?” He asked from behind me. I sighed as I turned on the faucet. He was talking about the mate bond. Yes. The most ironic thing happened. Jarred had mated with me. But the funny part was that I didn’t feel anything either. Maybe I was trying so hard to resist it. Why? Because I was already seeing someone—Roger.

He looks very puzzled, as if he can’t comprehend what I just said. “Sane?” “Uh huh, are you?” He stares at me with his eyebrows arched; uncertain what to answer. “Pretty much, yeah.” He replies, trying to ignore the feeling that maybe I am up to something… strange. Well, I do hope he won’t find this strange. “You should come with me. I bumped into Dahna and Isequel earlier, we had a little catch up, until it concluded to joining them at their table.” I smile at him as if I’m not putting the both of us in a situation that none of us wants.

Repeating this on his arms, shaking his hands to flicks away a much as possible. The person was not there when I fed. “So... we were being followed?” No. I do not think so. ”I don’t understand.” He must have shown up when after i shifted back. If he had seen me he would have escaped long ago. He would be alive right now.

he muttered. I crossed my arms again. “I had things handled on my own,” I said. “You didn’t need to swoop in and play the ‘protective boyfriend’ role.” “Right. I should’ve just watched, knowing Jenny was watching too?” I blinked. “Jenny was watching? I didn’t see her.” “Obviously,” he said, with a little sarcasm. He’d come to the beach with Jenny — there was no way that was just a coincidence. What were they playing at?

He paused, turning to look at me with a nonchalant expression. "The meeting got canceled, so you don't have to worry," he replied, his voice cool and detached. He then offered his hand to Heather, who accepted it with a delighted smile. They walked away, leaving me standing there with Amy, my heart pounding with a mix of jealousy and frustration.

What a fucking joke! Or maybe I was the joke. Because I had searched for this same man for months. I had replayed that night in my head, again and again like a fool, wondering why he never came back for me, wondering if I had just imagined the intensity and sincerity in his eyes when he called me mate. Now I got my answer. He had been here. With her. He had been with my stepmother all along and I had been going to the bar over and over again, hoping to cross paths with him.

Yeah, he was also backing his Beta when I got in and I wonder when he started this method. “ You finally come to see me on your own.” He says, and let out a slight cough. “ I wouldn’t do that if not for one special person in my life.” I tell him, settling down on the couch the Beta was seating on before. “ You found your mate?” he ask causally, I wanted to ignore him but Scarlet’s word echo in my head, and I calm my nerve. “ I found my mate and she is here with me.” I tell him, I felt I had just spoken too much.

His eyes were bleak as he remembered the past and when he spoke about Bonnie, I saw the pains in his eyes and also heard them in his voice. “I'm sorry all this happened to you. I wish you didn't have to go through all of that” I wish we had met sooner, I wanted to tell him, but, even if we had met before he met Bonnie, I wouldn't have been able to fight alongside him. I don't think I would be able to do it now, I was just an ordinary Omega. My words seem to have brought him out of the haze he was caught in because he moved. He pushed me a little away from him to stare into my eyes.
